MYTH SHORTS - WOMENS - KELPIE

The Folklord Myth Shorts are designed for all-day endurance and then some. These shorts are cut like a normal chino but are made to perform on any adventure. They've also got an interior compression liner with a super secret mythical design! MYTHICAL PROPERTIES In Scottish folklore, the kelpie is a dangerous shape-shifter that appears to its victims on land as a horse before luring them to their watery graves. But Scotland wasn’t the only place haunted by the beasts. According to Etruscan, Phoenician, Roman and Greek mythology, the hippocampus (or hippocamp) tormented sea farers as well. Kelpies have been rethought and redesigned throughout tales, sometimes with hooves, sometimes as humanoids, sometimes with a Medusa-like mane of serpents. Sometimes they’re scary and sacrificial harbingers, and sometimes they’re protectors of Scottish youth. Whichever story strikes your fancy, it’s clear that the legend has persisted because of its ability to shape-shift and mold to its teller and its listeners, and reinvent itself over time.
